According to a post on Reddit there was a stream and upload of Boards of Canada - Boc Maxima (CD rip) today.
Not sure if I am allowed to link that here...but thoughts?

Astounding!
Awesome! I'm new to the forum but have been a fan for a bit now. I just wasn't sure what the rules were around posting links to media. It was a pleasant surprise to come across it today!

The Q&A from the YouTube video.
"FAQs:
Q1: how did you get this?!
A1: i bought it off a guy a few years ago
Q2: how much did that set you back?
A2: more than a month's wages
Q3: is this the same CD that the rips of whitewater and red moss from november 2025 are from?
A3: yes, those originated from this CD
Q4: why release the whole thing now?
A4: inspired by the brilliant work of @Samamdj who tracked down some other rare boc material, spent a fat stack of cash on it, then posted it on the internet post haste. a decent quality rip of old tunes 2 was my holy grail. apart from that, joining in the post-Inferno hype!
Q5: what do you mean @alexw44 "repaired missing audio"?
A5: between each track there was a split second of missing audio - not a gap which could be cut out, but audio overwritten by silence. alex repaired these gaps with reference to other sources for the audio. personally I think it is now impossible to tell where the gaps were!
Q6: i found a copy of this CD on Discogs / eBay after this video came out, is it real or is it a bootleg?
A6: if it's me selling it I'll put it in this video description. if not, probably a bootleg - because of the value of this band's rare merch, it is actively targeted by forgers from time to time. it's unknown how many CDs of this album exist but probably under 50. i wouldn't spend anything like as much as i spent unless the seller is able to authenticate its provenance somehow. if the audio is identical then 100% a bootleg due to Q5."

Any ideas why there was a weird audio silence gap between songs on the original CD to begin with?
